    In the photo above Jame Foxx appears to be resurrecting the spirit of Ray Charles (again). Peep the glasses, the smile, the stance. Wow…all captured in an instant on film!  Foxx along host Steve Harvey appeared with such icons as Prince, Patti LaBelle and Bill Cosby to celebrate the Apollo Theatre’s 75th anniversary.

    Quincy Jones and Patti LaBelle were each inducted into the Apollo Legends Hall of Fame and the Ruby Dee and Ollie Davis Arts and Humanitarian Award was presented to Bill and Camille Cosby.

    Check out a few photos from the historic event:

    Mar, 30 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Somebody reminded me this weekend of how much of a Prince fanatic I used to be. I dunno what happened between me and his Royal purple highness….but he lost me somewhere around the time he changed his name. Now he’s Prince again and he’s tryna woo me back so I’m thinkin bout givin him another chance. Men! *sigh*

    Anyway…peep a few flix below from his “One Night…Three Venues” tour last weekend in California. I may be hallucinating….but are those FLATS I see on Prince Rogers Nelson’s tiny lil feet? Can’t be…




    Prince also hit up The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and performed a new song called “Ol School Company.” Check out the video under the cut:

    Spotted ~ Dave Chappelle @ NY Launch Party for Prince’s “21 Nights”

    Oct, 13 2008 | Written by ATLien

    Comedian Dave Chappelle was spotted chillin at the launch party for Prince’s “21 Nights” in New York Friday night.  ”21 Nights” is the coffee table book of photos from where Prince did 21 concerts in 21 nights. The tour was completed back in September and the book has now been released. (CLICK HERE if you missed the sneak peek of the photos.) The New York launch party was blessed by a performance by the elusive purple mister himself and party-goers included Chapelle, as well as Howard Stearn (with his new wife), Tom Green, Spike & Tonya Lee and Dennis Rodman (with his bag of onesies…).
